FORTE Andre Constantine 13th September 1925 to 1st August 2024 Devoted husband of and best friend to the late Jean, loving father to Antonia and Mark and father-in-law to Michael and Pamela, and doting and proud Papa to Rosanna, Jake, and Ellis. Born in Dalkeith, Scotland, Andre was a long standing resident of Barry, and will be remembered for running the cafes on Barry Island with his brothers, Dino and Tony. He retained a lifelong interest in promoting tourism in the area and was instrumental in bringing Butlins to Barry Island whilst serving as an independent councillor on Barry Borough Council. Andre outlived Jean, with whom he had shared life for 72 years, by less than four months. In line with Andre's wishes, there will be a private family-only interment. For those who wish, donations in memory of his life can be made to St John's Ambulance Service.
